Network SSID

The SSID defines the name of the WLAN network.

The WLAN AP ports use this name to allow WLAN clients to connect to their offered WLAN network.

The WLAN station port uses the network SSIDs to connect to remote APs. The WLAN station port supports up to 10 network SSIDs; however, the station can connect to only one network at a time. The 7705 SAR-Hm scans for available networks in priority order until it finds one that matches a configured network SSID and then it connects to that network. If multiple networks are available, the 7705 SAR-Hm connects to the network with the lowest SSID.

Operators must configure security parameters for each configured network SSID.

The SSID can be changed only when the WLAN port has been shut down.
